Is Anything Wrong With Marrying Your First Suitor? by adaoke: 2:43am On Jan 25, 2013
Everyone keeps saying he is the first one, you dont have to say yes to him, others will come etc
The guy in question is a decent person,but people are wary cause he is the first person.

So, is anything wrong in marrying the first person that comes for your hand in marriage?

very few people actually marry their first suitor.

but, in cases where you're convinced he or she is the one, and no other issue presents itself, its up to you.

Nothing wrong with it at all
If he were a multi millionaire,they wouldn't be saying this
That is the coded language in their statement about him being the first suitor,they are hoping for someone richer
It is about you and who you think fits your ideal for a spouse ,nobody's business but yours
Unless of course there's something else they are objecting to and you choose to downplay it
The decision has to be right for you and if it is,you'll have to convince them
Goodluck

They are probably jealous of you..
They can't have it so they don't wish you have it too.
What kind of nonsense is "because he is the first one"??
If you think your judgement of the guy and situation is sound,then by all means,go ahead!!
...and goodluck!!

Baby mama:

Do you
She didn't mention her parents' in her post and she didn't say "they"(whoever the "they" are) are not supportive."They" are only asking her to reconsider before taking the step or so i suppose..
Its not like "they" really have anything against the guy asides he been the first which doesnt really make senseundecided

Wishing you best of luck.

If he meets your expectations and you are sure of not being naive, go for it! God has probably blessed you with a decent man at the very first opportunity.

Absolutely nothing wrong with that, if he meets what you desire. All you need is the "Mr Right", his position in the queue not withstanding.

Actually what if he was your boyfriend and then decided to marry you for real and at that time , he was the first , will you tell him to wait to be second or third.
though they have their reason which might be reasonable or otherwise but if you feel right about him and you convinced he is the one.you might go ahead.
This kind of situation, you will see people rushing in because devil want to bring confusion and before you know it, you might end up with the wrong one.
PRAY AND be convinced

Hmmmmmmm....... You have a God you can always talk to; you own your heart and brain. The powers to determine the kind of happiness you want lie with you.
Marriage is not a 4-way Rotary test - it doesn't have to be beneficial to everybody for you to feel right.

If you are convinced enough that both of you ZINGED, then there's no problem go on with it. And if you marry your first suitor, it just meand that you are too guarded and precious for your spouse not to find your heart intact.

@op
While you are at it and content with playing to naysayers, or secretly in wait for the knight in a shiny armor and castle, please let the poor guy be so he can berth in surer waters.

P.S
Men really go through the most inanities in finding a mate-from the ridiculous, absurd and selfish, the filtering criteria is unbounded, and can reach depraved depths; no wonder exhaustion and wear defines the best of them.
